What is workflow-architect?

A tool that studies how you work and turns the result into a bundle of reusable instructions for a coding agent. It can learn through questions or by observing a workflow, then define when each instruction should be used.

Use it to map work phases, decision points, tools, and completion signals, then generate agent skills, triggers, and a workflow map.

It helps replace an informal, repetitive process with documented steps that an agent and collaborators can follow consistently.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00083	$0.01722
Opus 5	$0.00042	$0.00861
Sonnet 5	$0.00017	$0.00344
Haiku 4.5	$0.00008	$0.00172

Security

Grade A, and why

workflow-architect scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (references/example-output/developer-pipeline-kanban/kanban/board-setup.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 145 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Workflow Architect

A meta-skill that helps you (and your agent) understand how you actually work. It discovers your workflow patterns through either active interrogation or passive observation, then generates a skills bundle — a set of loadable skills, each with trigger conditions, that encode your workflow so your agent can meet you where you are in every session.

What You Get

After running workflow-architect, you'll have a new bundle in your agent's skill directory containing:

Umbrella SKILL.md — the entry point that makes the bundle auto-detectable via trigger conditions in its description. Load it with skill_view(name='<bundle-name>') or let the agent discover it automatically when you say something matching its triggers.
Sub-skills — one per phase of your workflow, each with a description that tells the agent when to load it (e.g., "load this when the user starts their morning triage routine" or "use this when the user shifts into deep work mode")
A manifest — maps skill names to their trigger conditions, entry points, and transition signals
A decision map — Mermaid flowchart visualizing your workflow as the agent sees it
A kanban board (optional) — only included if your workflow follows a predictable linear path where WIP limits and lane transitions add value

The umbrella and sub-skills are registered via skill_manage(action='create') so they appear in skills_list() and are immediately loadable in future sessions.

Two Modes

Workflow-architect adapts to how you want to engage with it.

Mode 1: Active Interrogation (One-Shot)

When to use: You have a few minutes to talk through your process. This is the most thorough mode — the agent asks guided questions, branches based on your answers, and builds a model of your workflow turn by turn.

How to invoke:

/workflow-architect

The agent will guide you through a conversation of about 8-15 questions. Answer naturally — the skill adapts its probes based on what you say.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

workflow-architect is a skill published in the GitHub repository magnus919/agent-skills (76 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 83 tokens to every session and 1,722 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-05.
